The Seigniorial System in Canada: A Study in French Colonial Policy by William Bennett Munro is a comprehensive analysis of the French colonial policy that was implemented in Canada during the 17th and 18th centuries. The book provides a detailed examination of the seigniorial system, which was a feudal land-holding system that was introduced by the French in Canada. Munro explores the origins of the system, its development over time, and its impact on the social, economic, and political structures of Canada.The book begins by providing a historical background of the French colonization of Canada and the establishment of the seigniorial system. Munro then delves into the details of the system, including the rights and responsibilities of the seigniors and the habitants, the organization of the seigneuries, and the role of the Church in the system. He also examines the impact of the system on the economy of Canada, including the production of wheat and other crops, the development of the fur trade, and the growth of the timber industry.Munro's analysis of the seigniorial system also includes a discussion of its impact on the social and political structures of Canada. He explores the relationship between the seigneurs and the habitants, the role of the seigneurs in local government, and the impact of the system on the development of a distinct French-Canadian identity.Overall, The Seigniorial System in Canada: A Study in French Colonial Policy is a detailed and insightful examination of the seigniorial system and its impact on Canada. Munro's analysis is based on extensive research and provides a valuable contribution to the understanding of Canadian history and the legacy of French colonialism in Canada.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
